How do I get both drives to show in W expl with RAID 1 configuration?
Hi.
I ordered my computer with two hard drives configured in Raid 1 (mirror) format two years ago.
This has worked perfectly well. In windows explorer, both drives showed (with different drive letters).
After a problem with the PC recently, I reloaded W10 from scratch and set up the Raid function again using the windows instructions at boot up. This was very easy.
This time however, only one of the disks is showing in explorer, although at boot up I can see that Raid 1 is in operation.
I would like both drives to show in explorer as previously.
Does anyone know how to do this please ?
Many thanks.
Also, when researching RAID I noted that several different sources said it wasn't a substitute for back up and wasn't suitable. Wonder why this is as it seemed perfect for what I wanted out of backing up files.

I have just seen a reference to "Windows Storage Space" in a thread on here.
Looks like this might be a better alternative to RAID anyway.
Might try that.
